Let's divide 993432 by 74
The aim is to understand the frequency of 74 in 993432.

On to step 1:
When dividing 9 by 74, we get 0 with a remainder of 9.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
If we subtract 0 from 9, we get 9.
Grab the next digit (9) from the dividend, add it to 9, then carry on: 99 / 74

On to step 2:
74 goes into 99 1 times with a remainder of 25.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 74 from 99, we get 25.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 25, then carry on: 253 / 74

Step 3:
The number 74 fits into 253 3 times, leaving a remainder of 31.
Record the quotient 3 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13.0
If we take 222 away from 253, we end up with 31.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 31 and repeat the process: 314 / 74

Going ahead to step 4:
The number 74 fits into 314 4 times, leaving a remainder of 18.
The next digit of our result is 4. 
Result so far: 134.0
The remainder is 18 after subtracting 296 from 314.
Grab the next digit (3) from the dividend, add it to 18, then carry on: 183 / 74

Advancing to step 5:
74 can be fit into 183 2 times, resulting in a remainder of 35.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1342.0
Subtracting 148 from 183 leaves us with 35.
Bring next digit (2) of the dividend behind the 35 and repeat the process: 352 / 74

Let's proceed to step 6:
74 goes into 352 4 times with a remainder of 56.
Put 4 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13424.0
Subtracting 296 from 352 leaves us with 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

On to step 7:
The number 74 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Use 7 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 13424.7
If we take 518 away from 560, we end up with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
The number 74 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
The next digit of our result is 5. 
Result so far: 13424.75
If we take 370 away from 420, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 9:
If we divide 500 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 56.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 13424.756
Subtract 444 from 500 to get 56.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
The number 74 fits into 560 7 times, leaving a remainder of 42.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13424.7567
If we subtract 518 from 560, we get 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 11:
The number 74 fits into 420 5 times, leaving a remainder of 50.
Write down 5 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 13424.75675
Deduct 370 from 420 and we're left with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

On to step 12:
If we divide 500 by 74, we get 6 and a remainder of 56.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 13424.756756
The remainder is 56 after subtracting 444 from 500.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 560, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
74 goes into 560 7 times with a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 7 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13424.7567567
Subtracting 518 from 560 leaves us with 42.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 420, and continue the process.

Step 14:
74 can be fit into 420 5 times, resulting in a remainder of 50.
Record the quotient 5 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 13424.75675675
If we take 370 away from 420, we end up with 50.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 500, and continue the process.

Our division results in 13424.75675675 with a remaining 5e-08.
